Smile and the whole world smiles with you, the old folks
always say. I believe in this, and I feel wonderful whenever I smile but sometimes
I was hesitate to open my mouth to smile due to my yellowish tooth (Blame that
coffee and caffeine sigh).

Since young, our teachers and parents taught us that tooth
is very important. Clean and bright tooth not only made us look beautiful, the
tooth’s life is also prolonging so we could eat our favorite food forever until
we are old. We don’t need to worry for spending a lot of money for tooth
transplant etc.

Thankfully I have neat tooth which I quite love their
appearance but there was a problems of food always stuck in between the tooth. Furthermore,
I love desserts and I am a sugar addict. Hence I have been going for scaling
and polishing at least once a year to make sure my tooth is clean. However,
this does not solved my yellowish tooth problems.

I can’t quite coffee and hence my tooth are always
yellowish. I have tried on teeth whitening before but somehow I stopped halfway
due to sensitivity. Recently a Dentist recommended me the Philips tooth
whitening treatment which was using the advance Philips machinery. This made me
feeling curious to Philips tooth care products.

I was thinking, instead of spending a lot of money at the
Dental center, why not I invest on some Philips tooth care products for home
usage. So, I explored into the New Philips Sonicare FlexCare+.

I believe the most important tooth care starts with tooth cleaning
every day and night. I have been using automatic toothbrush for more than 10
years now. However, the Philips Sonicare FlexCare+ gaves me totally different
sensation while brushing my tooth with it. The movement is strong, and my teeth
is clean and brighter after using for 2 weeks now. It helps to removes plaque too.
I love how it cleans my gum and tooth and the squeaky clean feeling every time after
using it. Now I could show my brighter smile because I have righter tooth with the
helps of Philips Sonicare Flexcare+, yay!

The new Philips Sonicare Flexcare+ offers a dental
professional-driven solution with the patented sonic technology and the
innovative new Gum Care mode for improved gum health in just two weeks.

It’s
a widely-known fact that Malaysians love food – so much so that the greeting
“Have you eaten?” is more popular than “How are you?” That’s why the choices of
cuisine are abundant and easily available at any time of the day in our country.

Food
brings us together with our friends and family, especially during festive
seasons like Chinese New Year. It provides not just mouth-watering aromas and
tastes; but also a common conversation topic that’s guaranteed to break the
ice. For Malaysians, food is translated into identity of families and
communities around the country. Indeed, food is a part of us and who we are.

Every
Chinese New Year, we celebrate the occasion with festive delicacies that only
make an appearance once a year. Among the various dialect groups, there are significant
dishes that symbolise the festivities. Each culinary creation has its own
unique twist, either passed down from previous generations or reinvented with a
modern touch. There’s just no denying the allure of a wonderful home cooked
dish, or even a hometown specialty.

This
year, Gaviscon Malaysia invites you to share your Chinese New Year food photos
and stand a chance to winang powsworth
a total of RM10,000! Join the “Eat Well, Digest Well’ photo contest and upload
your snaps of CNY fare, be it your personal favourites, family traditional
dishes or classic specialties.

I was back in Korea on the first day of 2016 to celebrate
New Year with my dearest soulmate. During that trip, I noticed that there were
a lot of new Korean brands that I have never seen before popping out on the
street. But, most of them were quite empty. The crowded counters at Duty free
shops were still the few famous one, and one of it is belif.

belif skin care was founded back in year 2010 in Korea. As a
‘true herbal cosmetic’ brand, belif strives to deliver the highest value and
quality based on the processes and philosophy created by a UK herbalist, Duncan
Napier, 150 years ago. According to belif, they only select True Herbs to
deliver nature’s benefits. Not only that, belif labels all its ingredients to
carry on Napiers’ tradition. Hence, we can see the label “With Napiers aqua
formula. Napiers original formula’ on their star product, the Aqua Bomb.

belif products are guaranteed safe to use, because they have
No Mineral Oil, No Synthetic Fragrance, No Synthetic Dyes, No Synthetic
Preservatives and No Animal Origin Ingredient. Not only that, any unnecessary
ingredients are avoided for the safety of use. Hence the formulas are gentle to
all skin types.

Just like its believing in avoiding any unnecessary
ingredients, belif is also avoiding exaggerated over-packing.

Since my skin had turned to very dry and sensitive after my
Busan Winter trip, thus I have given their stars products: Aqua Bomb and Hungarian
Water Essence a try to see if they could rescue my dry and flaky skin.

The
month of December is a month of giving, don’t you agree? Last December, CaffeBene
and The Butterfly Project Malaysia had organized a meaningful CSR program for
the unfortunate kids at orphanage homes. The Bene Box Project was a
collaborative effort organised by Ms. Tammy Lim (the founder of The Butterfly
Project) together with Caffebene Malaysia.

Butterflies
community has prepared some cute customized Bene Boxes to the children from
Yayasan Seribu Harapan Malaysia. All gifts were sponsored by The Butterfly
Project blogging butterflies who personalised each Bene Box with their
encouraging messages and bountiful surprises be it sweets, stationaries, toys
and more goodies. Even though I did not managed to join the gifts wrapping
section, I was happy to join the gifts giving event and witnessed the happy
moments of the kids at CaffeeBene Gamuda Walk back in December.

We,
the butterflies big sisters got to sit with the children and mingle with. Caffebene
has also prepared some ice cream and goodie bag for the kids.

Last Saturday was a fun filled day for me, as I discovered
the First Chocolate Museum in Malaysia with my bunch of blogger friends.

Cooperate by DR Group Holdings Sdn Bhd (“DR Group”), the
producers of homegrown brands such as Danson, Fidani and Millton, the
prestigious Chocolate Museum is open to the public with a unique three-fold
proposition(3Es) consisting of;

1)Interactive Education

2)Chocolate-making Experience

3)Enjoyable Shopping

The Chocolate Museum is located at Kota Damansara, somewhere
nearby the Segi College. It is very easy to locate, I just followed the directions
from waze and I reached there safely. There is a huge free open air car park
inside the Chocolate Museum compound. I love how easy it is for us to drive and
park there.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the founder of DR Group
before having our breakfast there. Dato is a very friendly and down-to-earth
person, thank you for having us there.

Then we got to learn the origin of chocolates, some chocolate
history, different types of cocoa beans from the theory part of the sharing of
Manager of Chocolate Museum, Mr. Mohd Azuan Arshad.

Do you know that eating chocolates
bring health benefits? If you don’t know, find out more at the Chocolate Museum
yourselves k.

I
have not been to New Zealand but I know it’s a beautiful country with lotsa
natural scenery, just like the scenes in The Lord of the Ring. There are a lot
of natural resources from New Zealand’s natural environment, and I always believed
on the benefits of natural ingredients and hence I am a supporter of Linden
Leaves, which is the Natural skincare brand from New Zealand.

Brought
to us by TNS Skin Lab, the leading independent specialist retailer of ‘natural’
and ‘alternative’ skincare and personal care products in Malaysia, Linden
Leaves Gold range is now available in Malaysia.

founder of Linden Leaves, Ms. Brigit Blair

Thanks to TNS Skin Lab, I had an intimate sit
down lunch with the founder of Linden Leaves, Ms. Brigit Blair and founders of TNS
Skin Lab, Ms. Kay Liew and Mr. Terry at Soleil PJ last month.

The
result of using Linden Leaves Gold range? User could expect a younger, firmer
and healthier looking skin. Pack in simple yet luxurious gold and white bottle/jar, Linden Leaves Gold range definitely is one of the most luxurious treatment for our skin.

I am a Spa person. I love to go to spa to pamper myself
after a long day at work to relax my mind and body. However, with the ever
rising cost of living here in KL(Or should I say the whole Malaysia?), I find
it hard to afford this monthly indulgence since last year. Sadly I had to cut
down my spa visiting, until I find a cozy yet affordable one recently.

I believed a lot of you have noticed the Healthland Wellness
Center in Klang Valley recently. I have visited the Healthland Wellness Center in Setia Alam a couple of weeks ago. Located right at the center of Setia Alam,
Healthland Wellness Center has occupied two storeys of the huge building.

With the aim to promote holistic wellness, Healthland
Wellness Center endeavor to help their customers to Get More Out of Life by
offering the finest and most affordable wellness solutions. They promote a
holistic lifestyle with health programmes and activities.

All their masseurs are professional trained by the acclaimed
Wellness Academy which is certified by the Ministry of Labour (Thailand).

After we registered ourselves, we were offered a soothing
and cold ‘Serai’ drink before we were led to the foot washing area. The masseurs
washed our foot with mild massage, and offered us a pair of slipper to change.

FUJIFILM
Malaysia has launched the latest version of ASTALIFT Jelly Aquarysta at the
launch event at Saujana Hotel KL last month. Since its arrival in Malaysia’s
skincare market in 2012, ASTALIFT Jelly Aquarysta has become the epitome of the
ASTALIFT skincare brand and is part of its premium anti-ageing care skincare
range. The jelly-type beauty essence helps combat dryness using a cutting edge
ingredient – “Human-type nano ceramide” to keep skin looking young, radiant and
lustrous.

The renewed ASTALIFT Jelly Aquarysta has enhanced moisturizing function
as it contains “Human-type nano acyl ceramide” which is a moisturizing
ingredient stably dispersed at the World’s smallest 20nm-level. It is able to
lock and prevent the evaporation of moisture by 6 times more than conventional
acyl ceramide molecules. Now, with the power of twin nanos, it will turns your
skin’s surface silky smooth and reflects beautiful ‘photogenic skin’.

As
of the texture, it’s the same unique jelly texture where the surface of the
jelly is able to repair itself within a minute or two after use, returning to
its original flat and smooth form. The product therefore, always appears as
good as new every time it is used.

Use
as pre-lotion booster, the suggestion of regime is cleanse your face, apply Jelly
Aquarysta, and follow with lotion after that. As the jelly penetrates all over
and conditions the skin base, the effect of lotion that is applied right after
the jelly will be maximized.

The
new ASTALIFT Jelly Aquarysta comes with a container features a more relaxed and
sophisticated design in a beautiful red tone, the brand color of the ASTALIFT
range. We like that it has a recyclable container which is thoughtful for the
environment.
